Year 3

Home learning

Look out for activity ideas and challengings to complete via Seesaw! I may refer to some websites which you can access to support your learning at home, which will be uploaded to our 'Useful Website' page on our school website. 

Mrs Kane has been starting her day feeling energised by completing the PE challenge with Joe Wicks on YouTube Live at 9am! Also, I have enjoyed listening to David Walliams reading stories at 11am www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/ - great time for a break! 

I am raring to battle on TTRockstars! 

Please share any of your learning via Twitter or Facebook! I can't wait to see what you've been up to! Mrs Kane 

Mental Health Wellbeing

There are many ways we can help keep our body and mind healthy. Here are a few ways:

1. Create a worry jar or monster. Write all your worries and place them inside. You can share them and talk about them. 

2. Mindful posing. Find somewhere quiet and calm, then try some different poses like The Superman and The Wonder Woman.

3. GoNoodle have many mindfulness videos to choose from.

4. Mindful breathing - GoNoodle and YouTube videos.

5. Good things. Together or on your own, pick out and write down three good things you have achieved.

6. Play games like I spy, Simon Says and board games.

7. Mindfulness 5-4-3-2-1. Name 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell and 1 thing you can smell.
